About Chowara Beach

Chowara Beach lies south of Kovalam in Thiruvananthapuram district, Keralam, and offers a quieter coastal experience than the capital region’s more developed resort beaches. The shoreline is known for open sea views, fishing activity and a relaxed atmosphere that appeals to visitors looking for simple walks and time by the Arabian Sea. Keralam Tourism highlights the nearby Chowara Ayyappa Temple, positioned on a hill above the coast, as a viewpoint from which visitors can take in broad panoramas of the beach and surrounding landscape.

The nearby Adimalathura shore extends the sense of an uninterrupted fishing coast, while Azhimala and its temple are also within the broader southern coastal belt. Chowara is therefore well suited to travellers who want to explore local coastal life beyond Kovalam’s main tourist zone. The verified Chowara postal area uses PIN 695501, which is listed for Chowara in the Department of Posts’ Keralam records.
